What a day! ????♂? Last weekends Brothers on Bikes: Black Men’s Health Ride was more than Movement Matters Collective could have asked for. We showed up for our health, for each other, and for our community. Huge gratitude to those who made this possible: Justin C. Lipford – Visionary behind it all. Brian (Barry) Pollard – The master connector. Randy Torres-Van Vleck, MPA – Route planning & logistics. San Diego County Bicycle Coalition – Leading the way on the ride. Jimbo's – Keeping us fueled with healthy snacks. Shoutout to the vendors who came out and supported: Circulate San Diego, Grandma LuLu's Table, UC San Diego Health, Bikes Del Pueblo, Major Taylor Cycling San Diego. And a special thank you to The Mental Bar for giving us a space to gather & ride ???? Finally, deep appreciation to Monica Montgomery Steppe and her team for commemorating this event. This is just the beginning. More miles, more impact, more community. Stay tuned for future ride updates! #community #bikelife #wellness Latoya Mckelvin

Our Community Climate Priorities Survey is open! https://lnkd.in/gCdVcHwi In collaboration with the rest of the Climate team and the Outreach team at SANDAG, we've developed this public survey to better understand how the proposed GHG reduction measures for our regional Climate Action Roadmap can support community priorities and advance environmental justice. If you live in the San Diego region, please consider taking the brief survey and/or sharing it with your networks and communities. Thank you! ??
